Title: Message Title

Grim Reaper commented on JENKINS-12783   Re: Delete workspace before build starts ignores Exlude patterns (for directories) Updated my test server to Jenkins 2.89.4 and we are now using "Gitea" as our backend SCM. Still the same issue. Also update on the work around. Found out it wasn't working as intended. So now I shuffle files around to make it work. This is all on Linux. Steps to configure the job: Under "Source Code management" (Git), select "Wipe out repo & force clone" under "Additional behaviours". Under "Build Environment", note you still need to have the preSCMBuildStep plugin and check "Run buildstep before SCM runs" and add "Execute shell", then use the following to "Exclude files" (You may need to modify for your needs): # Move build files to temp location before workspace wipe ls -Al "${WORKSPACE}" [ ! -d "/tmp/${BUILD_TAG}/" ] && mkdir -p "/tmp/${BUILD_TAG}/" mv -v "${WORKSPACE}"/*.build.* "${WORKSPACE}"/suppressions.xml "/tmp/${BUILD_TAG}/" ls -Al "/tmp/${BUILD_TAG}/" Under the "Build" section of your job. Add "Execute shell" and move it to the top. In the textbox add the following script commands to move your files back into the workspace: # Move build files back to workspace before build runs mv -v "/tmp/${BUILD_TAG}"/* "${WORKSPACE}" ls -Al "${WORKSPACE}" rm -rfv "/tmp/${BUILD_TAG}/" Off to try the latest and greatest Jenkins (Hopefully) it can still build our legacy apps >.<).   Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v7.13.6#713006-sha1:cc4451f) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Issues" group.
